Sold at the lower estimate price

The work Ghaza Zanbil by Sadegh Tirafkan was sold in the Contemporary Art / Arab & Iranian auction at Sothebys in London in October 2011. The result of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,943.86) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sadegh Tirafkan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work From The Series A Nightmare of An Era Hammurabi: The Law Codes, which sold at auction in April 2008 for USD 37,000.00 (€ 23,766.70).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Die Arbeit Ghaza Zanbil von Sadegh Tirafkan wurde im Oktober 2011 in der Auktion Contemporary Art / Arab & Iranian bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 6.943,86) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Sadegh Tirafkan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit From The Series A Nightmare of An Era Hammurabi: The Law Codes beobachtet, die im April 2008 für USD 37.000,00 (€ 23.766,70) versteigert wurde.
